she plsintively dwelt upon her old

ply as benefactress. She had just

Millionaire And Barefoot Boz

lis evening, and the round, red sun sinks
slowly in the west,
The flowers fold their petals up, the birds fly
to their nest,
The crickets chirrup in the grass, the bats fit
to and fro,
And tinkls tankle up the lane the lowering
cattle go.
And the rich man from bis carriage looks on
them as they come
Looks on them and the Barefoot Boy who
drives the cattle home.

Not for all the gold his Golfers hold would
be that old duffer there,
With liver pad and gouty toe, and scarce

To have wife with Roman nose, and tear
lest panic come
Far better be the Barefoot Boy that drives
the cattle home"
And the rich man murmers to himself:
Would give all my pelf
To change my lot with yonder boy Not if
know myself!
Over the field that's full Of ants and chill

With stone bruise upon either heel and .

On, I'd rather sail my yacht year across the

Than be one day the Barefoot Boy that drives

A Poor Mans Thanksgiving.

Let them who eat not, think he eats,
"Tis one to him who last year said,
"My neighbors dine on dainty sweets,
And | oD coarser bread"
He who on sugar angels fares
Hath pangs beneath his silken vest;
The rougher life hath fewer cares -
Vino fasts hath sounder rest.
If lean the body, light the wings;
His fancy hath more verge and room,
Who ieastupon the wind that brings
The flowers of hope to bloom.
So, if no smoking turkey grace
This day my clean but humble board,
I'll think what might have been my case
If rich, and thank the Lord.
No gout awaits my coming age,
No bulbous nose like lobster red.
To vex my temper into rage,
Or fill my days with dread.
Leave to the rich his roast and wine;
Death waits on him who waits for all;
The docto. will be there by nine,
By twelve the priest will call.
Lord, in all wholesome, moderate ways
Keep me, lest it should hap me worse;
Teach one to fill his mouth with praise
Who never filled his purse.
